Still marked on OS maps as MP, milepost. This milestone has been here since before 1860, as the OS rivet was placed between 1840-60. See nearby Waymarks.

Frostrow and Soolbank are the area names around here.

Now in Cumbria county who repaint their milestones and county boundary markers every year, it was once in West Riding of Yorkshire.
